Great for a short stay in Lisbon & surrounding areas

This book is absolutely fantastic! It's small and concise while still being detailed enough for a short trip to Lisbon & its surrounding areas (Cascais, Sintra, etc). It offers several suggestons for how to spend 1, 2 or 3 days, or even a week. The book is detailed without being too big (or too small) and includes a great fold-out map. Buying a whole book on Portugal was more information than we needed, as we stopped there for one day on a recent cruise. I'd say this book would be perfect for a few days stay. I highly recommend any book in this series.
